How to Sync Two Macs?

ChronoSync | Perform File and Folder Synchronizations and Backups Like Clockwork | Econ Technologies

Having got my new iMac at home, I am now faced with this difficulty of keeping my desktop and laptop synchronized. I obviously want to work on the iMac because it is faster and has a better screen, but I need to ensure that my documents (at least) are constantly updated on the Macbook Air so that I can seamlessly work on the laptop when I go out for meetings or travel.

I used an external hard drive for a very long time, storing all my documents on it, irrespective of which computer I used, at work or home. However, it was a bit cumbersome, and also there was the danger of the hard disk getting lost or being accessed by someone else.

I have read a few good reviews of ChronoSync which promises to sync and backup two Macs, but comes at a modest price of $40. I have just got myself the Demo version of the software to see if it is as good as others claim it is. Then perhaps I will shell out the 40 bucks.

Any other suggestions or ideas?
